Hands-on Manual Therapy Techniques
Did you know that you can learn to perform many manual techniques at home? Let me show you how.
These “hands on methods” are applied to the affected areas of your body to eliminate pain, relax muscles that are tight or in spasm, restore active range of motion, improve flexibility and restore your function. These include: joint and soft tissue mobilization, myofascial release, neural mobilization, scar mobilizations, edema management, mobilizations with movement, muscle energy, to name a few.
All appropriate self manual therapy techniques will be taught during telehealth sessions.

adjunct therapies
Mechanical Traction techniques, home electrical stimulation, heat and cryotherapy are shown to be clinically effective in pain management, increase blood flow and decrease inflammation, as well as to warm tissues prior to exercise and/or manual therapy. You can provide these treatments to yourself at home, I will show you how. This will keep money in your pocket and increase the tools you have for self care options. Providing patients with the most effective evidence based treatment means that you get the most out of your session when we meet. I won’t waste your time and money in session on those adjunct therapies you can provide yourself on your own time.
